Back in 2009 we wrote about their smallest restaurant in the world in a gondola. Well The Pearl has the same capacity. lees verder

It’s a fact that our smartphones have become a huge part of most of our lives. This way you miss the real interaction with friends or family. So you could go to the IKEA in your vicinity and ask them if you could buy the hot pot table they used to make this add for IKEA Taiwan!

KITKAT Chocolatery Sushi Tuna
KITKAT Chocolatery Sushi Sea Urchin
Sushi KITKAT
KITKAT Chocolatery Sushi Omelet A strange idea isn’t it? The well-known sweet treat Kit Kat, the chocolate-coated wafer bar with its distinct crunch, on puffed rice wrapped in seaweed.

Okay real sushi fans might not be happy with this…but it’s a great gimmick, don’t you think? lees verder

The new advertisement is an expression of the new campaign of McDonald’s Netherlands: ‘Always Open for Good Times’. lees verder
